Hi guys.
Ive purchased a gladiator computer from Aria about 2 months ago.

It was fine for now until about 2 weeks ago my computer wont boot up when i switch them on.
It wont even boot the BIOS. when I turn the computer on sometimes the screen has no input, and my computer fans run in max rpm.
I have to turn the pc off, and try again and again.
Sometimes it takes up to 10 tries until the pc boots up properly.

When my pc boots properly -> the fans run quiet when it booted.
When it doesnt -> fans run really fast, no screen output, BIOS wont load.

I have i5 2600k OCed to 4.2 from the OC genie in my MSI P67A-GD53 B3 MOBO
2 Gigabyte GTX 480 SOC in SLI, OCed as well
2 x 3gb Mushkin DDR3, in slot Dimm 2

Ive noticed my computer acts like this after I had a series of blue screens from my windows...
crashed a few times.

maybe its because of the drivers?
maybe because the OC is unstable?
hardware malfunctioning?

because when I have my computer booted properly it runs fine...

please help :)

EDIT: I had my GPUs OCed and had unstability, so Ive reduced the OC a bit, and I notice that games runs stable. Not one BSOD or windows crash after that. Maybe its something related to it? :/

Try running memtest on the memory to see if theres a problem with it
Try running prime95 to see if system is stable

Upload the .dmp files for your blue screens if you want to figure out the cause

The BSOD in windows is likely to be down to unstable overclock. Have you contacted Aria support about this directly? You will be well within warranty and if the problem is as replicable as you say then they should be able to diagnose it easily and fix / replace.

Apologies for the spammer (gamer111) above. Hopefully he is about to get permabanned.

Thank you.
I no longer have BSOD for now. I think it was because of my GPU OC. When I toned it down via MSI Afterburner I no longer have games and app crashing.
However I still have the cold boot - took me about 3 re attempts to boot my pc to BIOS -> windows.
maybe its because of the CPU OC? 4.2 Ghz with OC Genie in my MOBO option.

I ran my memory test with my BIOS in MOBO and it passed.

Should I take off the OC on my CPU and see what happens?

Yeah probably unstable overclock. The best method of overclocking is to do it through BIOS, software overclocking can be iffy. Plenty of guides on this online, I won't go over old ground.

OK guys. After my pc not booting, It booted up and used my computer for weeks without any problem.
However I am having my computer not booting up again, and this time its BAD.

I tried resetting the CMOS, removed the RAM and put it back on, and it still is stuck. (no monitor input, no beeping, just fans going full throttle)

My MOBO is MSI P67A-GD53 B3

Should I return this machine back to Aria to fix it?
It has only been 3 month since I bought this.

if you have cleared CMOS and not re-overclocked it and your still getting the issues i would return it

if not clear CMOS again and run the computer at stock speeds and see if the issues are still there

If you cleared cmos, it should be ok. Like Sniperdude said clear the cmos again. Failing that return it.

Return it, Aria can sort it for you.

Check that dimm slots are not what is causing the problem first, cos' thats a common one sometimes, but whatever the weather return it to aria and they'll fix it for you :)

Yeah, don't risk ruining your warranty. Just send it straight back. :)

That's the worse thing you can do, lose your warranty, trying to fix something that's broken! ;)

Aria will probably recover everything on your hard drive too :D (by not replacing the hard drive :P)
